Well if there wasn't a female in the room besides you then that is against the law. However if there was just let them know next time that you are uncomfortable like that and want something to cover yourself with.I don't know why you would have to strip everything off though.

Well now that doesn't sound good. Was a nurse present or your mother? At the age of 14 you should be given a gown. I'm sorry to say but he sounds like a pervert and your parent's should be worried.
If you've already begun your menstral cycle you are a young woman and should be treated as such.
Now adays a person can be a doctor, lawyer or whatever with just a 2.0 GPA
Just because he is a doctor doesn't mean he is a Saint.

Not all doctor's offices do it the same.
At mine, if your going for a physical, you need to strip everything off. Then lie down on the examining table with a paper sheet on top of you. The doctor will ask you to move the sheet depending on the part of the exam he's doing. You'll never be completely uncovered though.
It can be embarrassing especially if your not use to someone else seeing you like that. But the doctor is just doing his/her job. If your pediatrician is a guy, you could always ask your mom to find you a women gynecologist. It might make it more comfortable for you.

Next time ask the nurse for a gown, she will gladly give you one. Doctors need to check the skin, too. It is part of your body and it will have tell tale signs of your health.
It's natural to feel embarrased.

Ask for a gown next time. Your doctor should have been sensitive enough to know any 14 year old would be embarrassed to sit around in their underwear.

Sorry...not buying your B/S. All someone has to do is go back and read your earlier posts to know you are fulfilling some twisted little fantasies in your mind. Grow up, sweetie, before you cannot differentiate reality from fantasy...Just look at where it got John Karr.
BTW, was this incident before or after the nurses came in and spanked you? That was what happened according to your question earlier today, right?

Your pediatrician should always give you a gown. Somethings wrong with that. Tell someone now if you dont feel right about before something happens. Dont be scared tell someone NOW.

First off, always tell a doctor if you don't feel comfortable doing something. Remember, you are paying him for his services. Also, there's very few things which have to be done completely naked. I'm not comfortable when they tell me to strip down to my boxers, and I tell them that and we find a happy medium. Just wearing a blouse that buttons up the front should work for you.

If you are embarassed by being in your underwear in front of the pediatrician, perhaps its time you graduated to an adult doctor. Just tell him you are uncomfortable. there are gowns somewhere available in his office.
